Being positive is my thing—it is my hardwiring. I love positive people. “Glass full” is the mantra I live by, even when the glass is half empty. Life is good when you can create your own Garden of Eden—unspoiled love, peace, and joy. Who doesn’t want that? But there are some places where the Garden of Eden won’t be found.1. The Garden of Eden will not be found in another human being—known in theory, harder to put into practice.2. The Garden of Eden disappears in highly stressful situations—doesn’t matter if it comes from within or without.3. The Garden of Eden thrives on the truth told to ourselves and others.4. The Garden of Eden is drained of resources when you spend too much time with people who drain your energy more than they enhance it.5. In the Garden of Eden…contentment is better than being right—especially if it is ego driven.6. Don’t bring anything that you absolutely don’t love to the Garden of Eden—it will destroy Eden’s beauty.7. Encourage—don’t enable. Let others create their own Garden of Eden, even if it involves hard work—they will benefit from it.
